No, only creatively bankrupt studios churn out games as uninspired as Illusion or Miel or EA FIFA, and most game studios are not. Most companies don't just want to make the same game over and over again. Elden Ring is not just Dark Souls again (unless you want to get stupidly reductionist). Obsidian just released Pentiment after Grounded and Outer Worlds. Squeenix churns out loads of recycled crap, but it can also release things like Dungeon Encounters, Octopath Traveller, and Harvestella. Ubisoft can do Mario x Rabbid games, and even the AC games have seen significant upgrades.Isn't that what most game studios do?
While the games are limited, Studio is only limited by your imagination and your PC capacity
Illusion is an outlier - even Miel of all low effort shitware houses occasionally manages to surprise people with a game that doesn't involve instant mindbreak, piercings, crotch tattoos and pissing in vaginas, but all Illusion can do is the same damn sandbox over and over again with graphical upgrades. Aparently they can make money on that, but I got bored after the same 'game' three or four times.
